Is Creps With Nutella Strawberry Healthy?

Many people are worried about whether their diet is healthy or not. This depends on different variables, such as the type of ingredients they use & in what quantities. In this case, the main ingredients are crepes, strawberries, & Nutella.

• Crepes typically contain flour, eggs, milk, and oil or butter. They provide an excellent amount of protein but are also high in calories. They can also increase sugar levels if not used in the right balance.
• Next is Nutella, which adds a delicious sweet chocolate flavor. However, it is very high in fats & sugar. Just two tablespoons contain about 200 calories & 21 grams of sugar.
• Strawberries, however, are a healthy option & provide many health benefits.

The issue is, how much of this dish can we use? I recommend not making this a daily breakfast option but saving it for special events or occasions. If you want a safer & more secure option, you can reduce the quantity of Nutella and increase the amount of strawberries.

How to Prepare Nutella Crepes with Strawberries? Easy Steps

Blend Ingredients

First, we must put all the ingredients into a blender. One cup of milk, 2 eggs, 1/4 cup of water, 1 cup of flour, and 2 tablespoons of melted butter. Blend until all the ingredients are combined. You can also whisk by hand, but the main thing is that it should blend well and have no lumps.

Once the batter is ready, strain it into a bowl to remove small lumps. It’s very important to have a smooth texture when making crepes, so please don’t skip any of the steps I’m mentioning. After that, cover the batter and refrigerate it for an hour. If you have more time, you can refrigerate it overnight as well.

Flipping the Crepes

To loosen the sides of the crepe and then flip:

1. Use a flat or wooden spatula.
2. Flip the other side over, and cook for about 30 seconds.
3. With the remaining batter, repeat these steps.

Filling the Crepes

Time to fill them once you’ve cooked your crepes! Spread a thin layer of Nutella on the crepe & place it flat. Next, sit thinly sliced strawberries on one half of the crepe.

Folding the Crepes

The last step is folding the crepes into quarters. These are so yummy! You can use any filling that pleases and be stuffed into the crepes. I love Nutella strawberries. You can also sprinkle powdered sugar on top for serving. Just serve it hot for the best taste.

Tips To Make Perfect Nutella Crepes with Strawberries

1. Mix the batter thoroughly.

All ingredients (flour, eggs, milk, melted butter, and a pinch of salt) are blended until smooth to ensure no lumps in the batter. With this, the crepes will be the same, and you can create the delicate crepes.

2. Give the batter some time to rest.

Give the batter rest for at least 30 minutes. It relaxed the gluten more, and the crepes are a bit tender.

3. Control of heat

Heat your skillet or crepe pan over medium heat. If it’s too hot the crepes will burn, and if it’s too cold they won’t cook. 

An excellent thumb rule is to sprinkle a few small drops of water on the pan, and if they bubble and evaporate immediately, then it’s ready.

4. Use sufficient butter

Butter the pan and grease lightly so you don’t get stuck; it also has flavor. It’s possible you’ll have to add more butter in between cooking each crepe.

5. Swirl method

In a hot pan, put about 1/4 cup of batter; tilt and swirl the pan to spread the batter evenly over the surface. This is how you get thin crepes.

6. Time for cooking.

Brush every crepe with a soft towel; cook about 1-2 minutes on one side until the edges start lifting and turn golden brown. Cook 30 seconds to 1 minute on the other side, and flip it over.

Can I Use Another Fruit Instead of Strawberry?

You can use any fruit; it won’t affect the recipe; only the flavor will change depending on the fruit. I like strawberries, so I’m adding strawberries. 

Strawberries are just one fruit you can use in your Nutella crepes. There are so many more! Blueberries and bananas add a juicy, slightly tart flavor to a sweet, creamy texture. 

The raspberries add a delightful counterpoint, and sliced peaches add lovely, fragrant sweetness. Fresh mango adds a tasty tropical slice, and cherries lend a juicy thump. Have fun mixing different fruits for a colourful mess that will bring out the flavour of your crepes.

Can I Use Another Choclate Spread Instead of Nutella?

1. Justin’s Chocolate Hazelnut Butter

This spread is made with dry roasted hazelnuts and is a healthier option to those that would choose a chocolate chip cookie dough.

• Benefits: Between Nutella and Cacao Barry, Cacao Barry is normally lower in sugar, making it a better choice for healthy people.

2. Cocoa Haze

The focus is on quality ingredients; there’s a strong chocolate flavor here.

• Benefits: With no palm oil, a more natural solution.

3. Homemade Chocolate Spread

Ingredients:

• Natural peanut butter
• Ripe bananas
• Cocoa powder
• Sweetener (like maple syrup)

Benefits: It allows you to select what goes into your bag of chips and how much sugar you wish to use.
